Scientific Name: Aechmea tillandsioides. Common name: not known. A delightful species bromeliad that clumps quickly into a great specimen plant. Native to from Mexico and Belize in Central America to Brazil and Colombia in South America. Popular as an ornamental plant it is widely grown for its nice foliage and beautiful flowers. If pollinated, the red berries change colour to white and then turn dark blue. Sometimes a challenge to grow from seeds but they make an excellent interior plant that is easily cared for. A bromeliad is an epiphyte - they feed through their leaves and not their roots. Mist the leaves once or twice weekly and they stay happy. Makes great companion plants to grow with orchids. Like orchids, they can be attached to almost anything except chemically treated wood. They are drought-tolerant and suitable for xeriscaping. They like light, but not direct sun. Kept happy, they will bloom all year.

This item is a special bromeliad collector's packet of one hundred (100) Aechmea tillandsioides seeds, to be delivered upon receipt of payment. Note that the buyer pays $2.95 postage & handling.
